Provenance
Acquired directly from the Abuja Pottery Training Centre;
A private collection.
Assembled on a saucer base, the ridged candle holder is presented with a strap handle and Jun glazed inside and out with a mix of white, dark blue and black glazing. Thrown, the completion of the work would have been executed meticulously and with more complex delicacy and skill than other works due to its considerable detail.
